I don't believe in fixed fights but that seemed very suspect to me lol

was just thinking the same

dudes getting destroyed, Then they stand back up and Mendes basically stopped fighting???? Then went down and they stop it with like 3 seconds???

Guy took a headline fight on two weeks notice and was crushing Conman on the ground.

Whole thing is vexing. In the interview Chad did not say a word about the supposed tko or whatever they categorize it. ::)

Didnt connor dare dana to put up $3mil for a round 2 knockout?

I was wondering if the fix was in considering all the hype and the rebuild back to Aldo. I don't think the ref was was aware of the time left since he was focused on the fight. he stopped it when mendes wasnt responding back and just covering up. Legit stoppage. Herb let it continue on the ground when connor was asking for it to be stood up. Then again who knows.....

Good night of fights throughout.

He also allowed a couple of elbow spikes from McGregor too.

If Chad was throwing that fight, he wasn't doing a very good job when he was dropping bombs and heavy elbows on McGregor.

It got pretty weird there at the end with McGregor asking to be stood up like he was above getting that ground and pound...then Mendes just is so gassed he stands there to take a punch? Where was this fight taking place again? Hmmmm.

Oh, forgot, everything's fixed. Those bombs he ate, the cut, all part of the show.

Internet's made people f'n stupid.

Did you guys not watch the fight? he was taking spinning heel kicks to the guts and was gassed. On the last shot it was perfectly on the chin, he went out and covered up, he was broken.

And Chad threw those full-body haymakers (that landed) hoping they'd miss?

So done with idiots.

A few weeks ago it was Big John McCarthy and now it's Herb Dean.

All of the sudden the top 2 referees in the business are throwing fights.

Yeah some nasty heavy short punches from inside the guard.  Conspiracy says he had to let connor up with seconds left so connor can pull off his finish... And win the bet ;D

I was wondering about the potential for a fix myself considering that insane bet that dana never accepted, the buildup in getting ireland backed hero which would get more european eyeballs and open wallets. There was a lot on the line for connor and the UFC to lose if something came undone. I think dana said they plan on spending even more for the impending aldo /connor re-matchup. We now know that Pride wasnt above fixing their fights on occassion and allowing PED's. One  thing is certain - if the UFC gets caught fixing a fight they are done. Would the Fertitas risk their reputation?. The refs taint theirs? Eventually if there is a fix its a matter of time before someone talks and things come apart. Too much on the line for the UF C to throw away.

As far as tonights fight goes it looked pretty legit in terms of the stoppage.
Indomitable will triumphs?

You don't see the potential conflict of interest with Dana placing ANY bet pertaining to a UFC fight?

I don't think BJM was part of the Slice/Shamrock fix, but I am 100% sure that Kimbo/Shamrock fight was fixed.
